This event attracted Railways, Academics and Industry players from the Wider Black Sea area with approximately 240 people attending the event. A presentation on the DESTinationRAIL project was given during the Infrastructure session which generated a number of positive responses and questions. During the day presentations were made by Trafikverket on Shift2Rail and EIM on the Challenges of Managing Infrastructure in the Age of Austerity both of which complemented the DESTinationRAIL one.

Interest was shown by CFR SA, the Romanian Infrastructure Manager, in finding out more about the DESTinationRAIL project and arrangements will be made to visit CFR SA in February when the project will be presented an infrastructure technical gathering in Buzau.

The European GNSS Agency was present in a panel chaired by Michael Robson, Work Package 5 leader, with the representative expressing a willingness to work with the DESTinationRAIL project on developing satellite links for data.
